Better to be silent and thought a fool than to open your mouth and prove everyone correct

About Me

I have recently moved to Austin to be closer to my girlfriend and to assume a job day-trading. In a prior life, I attended school in Switzerland.

My Interests


I'd like to meet:

your mom... and Roger Lodge

Music:

I like popular, overplayed music. Can't get enough of it. It takes way to much work to sort through new/indie/underground artists trying to find something good. I leave that up to other people like Kip so that I can reap the listening pleasures of their hard work.

Movies:

Snakes on a (mothafuckin') Plane, Tammy and the T-Rex, Waiting (that Dane Cook is a silly bitch), and then all the other movies that everyone else generally likes.

Television:

24, The Office, Grey's Anatomy

Books:

Team of Rivals; Freakonomics; Guns, Germs, & Steel; In the Red Zone; American Sphinx; The Great Gatsby; anything Hemingway; The Alphabet of Manliness
